Chapter 29: Getting Ready
Rose and King Endymnion stood in the main training room of the castle. The room that was used to train palace guards the finer arts of sword fighting.
The king looked at her. "Ready?"
Rose nodded. "Yes."
She walked over to where some practice swords were and selected a light sword with a narrow blade, simalar to the one she used when she transformed into Sailor Saturn.
She turned to her father, who had also a sword in hand.
The king approached his daughter. "Okay, we've been training for the past two weeks, and I have to say, you have a knack for this." He paused as Rose smiled happily at him. "But, you must understand, this is not a game. People's lives are at stake everytime you go into a battle." Rose nodded.
"I understand that, Father."
"Good, lets begin." He held his sword out in front of him, and Rose did the same. He slashed at Rose, she dogded and blocked. He slashed again, and Rose blocked and back up. "Don't just block! Attack!" The king said. He attacked again. Rose brought her sword up and blocked again, but this time, she put her weight into the sword, causing her father's sword to fall to the floor. She put her sword down and looked at her father.
"Good defense." Her father said picking up his sword, "now, offense." Rose nodded. She held her sword out at arms lenth like before and waited as her father did the same. She lashed out with her sword, but every time she struck, it was blocked. She slashed, blocked. She stepped forward, slashed again, it was blocked, as soon as the sword hit sword, she struck again, caught her opponent off guard, and knocked the sword form his hand.
As the sword hit the ground, she tapped her father's chest armour lightly with her sword.
Her father looked at her, pride showing in his eyes. "You have come a long way. Your technique is nearly perfect." He smiled. "That's enough for today, run along now."
Rose nodded and placed her sword back in its original place. She smiled at her father and left, in search of her friends.
The king watched as his daughter walked from the room. He looked at his hand. It was shaking uncontrolably. 'Man, she IS good.'

David sat with the older Sailor Mercury. On an observatory table in front of them sat the star crystal.
"Man, this crystal is more powerful than I first thought." Mercury said, looking at a readout from the crystal. "It looks to me like the crystal draws power from the stars themselves. That would mean that the crystal would be unstoppable, if its full power was realized."
David looked impressed. "That would mean, that, if Bob and his forces attacked, now. Then we would have no problem destroying them with this crystal."
"Not quite. Its true, this crystal is very powerful, but the only way to unleash its power would be for its holder to provide the nessecary energy."
"And that holder would have to be Rose, right?"
Mercury nodded.
"But you just said that the star's power came from the stars."
Mercury looked thoughtful. "Yes, that's true, it must be that Rose would have to call on the stars themselfs to draw out the needed energy."
David smiled. "Its good that you know so much about the crystal. Now, I suppose you could teach the princess how to draw out the crystal's power."
Mercury looked at him. "I don't know how to control this thing."
"But you know so much about it!"
Mercury held up the readout she had been reading from. "I was just reading this."
David's head drooped. "So what will we do if Bob's forces attack?"
Mercury looked away, "the only thing that would save us would be the silver crystal."
David looked up. "But only the queen can use the imperium silver crystal!"
Mercury nodded. "And in her state, she is not able to summon the crystal. The only thing we can do is pray that Bob doesn't attack until after the baby is born."
David looked downcast. "I'd better go and tell the princess what we have learned."
Mercury carefully picked up the star crystal and placed it back in Rose's locket. "Here, take this with you."
David put the locket in his mouth and ran off to find the princess.
Little did they know, their conversation had been monitered.
********************************************************************************
Bob sat in his headquarters, sulking. 'How could she become so strong so fast, if I'd known how strong she was, I would have used my full power, instead of that little blast.'
A knock came on the door. "Enter." He was not happy about being disterbed.
A soldier came into his chambers. He bowed. "Lord Bob, a message from our spies."
Bob nodded, and listened as the soldier relayed the conversation between Sailor Mercury and that little fur ball.
"So," Bob said smiling, "That brat doesn't know the full power of the crystal. Perfect. If we stage an attack now, they wouldn't be able to hold us off." He stood. "Pull out our spies, gather the troops, all of them. We will attack the palace immediatly. Full force."
********************************************************************************
Queen Serenity and King Endymnion sat in the throne room, talking.
"So, have you noticed, the castle doesn't seem as busy now as its been being." Serenity said.
"Yes, its like there are less people here than normal." Endymnion answered.
"I wonder what it means." Serenity said, suddenly, she gasped. She held her stomache. "Honey, I think the baby's coming."
"WHAT?!? AAAAHHHHH!!!!!"
********************************************************************************
Bob looked at his troops all of his forces would be used. He stood in the lead. "ATTACK!!"
He led the army to the beautiful planet known as Earth.
********************************************************************************
Rose was sitting in the garden of the palace when Luna and Artemis ran up to her. "Princess! Come quick! The baby's coming!" Rose stood. "Coming!!"
Suddenly, the alarm rang through the castle.
Rose looked confused. "An attack, now?"
Amanda looked to the sky. "Look up there!"
The girls looked to where Amanda was pointing. 'Oh, no. Bob's attacking us directly.' Rose thought as she seen a huge army approach from the sky. "Luna, Artemis, alert the sailor scouts to raise the main shield around the castle. We'll do our best to hold them off until my mother can use the silver crystal!"
The two nodded and ran to the castle.
"PRINCESS!!!"
Rose looked and saw David run toward her, her locket in his mouth. "You might need this." He said as she took the locket.
Rose looked at her companions. "You ready?"
They nodded.
"MERCURY GALATIC POWER!"
"VENUS GALATIC POWER!"
"MARS GALATIC POWER!"
"JUPITER GALATIC POWER!"
"SATURN MOON STAR POWER!!!"
"TRANSFORM!!"
Sailor Saturn looked at her team. "Lets go!"
"RIGHT!!"
Saturn looked ahead, "Bob, you better prepare yourself. You will feel the full force of THE SAILOR STARS!!!"
